Quick Cures

photo credit: Edd Morgan   A shot that starts left and hooks sharply in the same direction is called a “pulled hook.”  Usually this requires the attention of a professional golf instructor. 

A hook, on the other hand, is not so serious and can be easily corrected.  When gripping the club make sure that both V’s of either hand are pointing directly at your chin.  Be sure to concentrate on just brushing the club to the top of the grass or just clipping the tee.  Doing so will take the club straight through the impact zone.

For the slicer, point the V’s of either or both hands towards your right shoulder and be sure to clip the top of the grass.  Don’t swing from the outside-in, swing from the inside-out.
